Speaking on Wine

Wine Tastings is a popular way to entertain your friends, business associates or family members.  The Sassy Sommelier offers educational seminars and wine tasting for private groups, corporate events and charitable organizations.  We create customized interactive wine events, allowing you to choose the theme while we recommend the wines and organize the specific details for a fun and impressionable event!

The Presentation/Tasting typically last from one and a half to two hours.  We recommend serving up to tow ounces of each wine and sampling of five to seven wine selections, depending upon your interests and budget.

We use Sommeliers and Wine Specialist to teach the tools necessary to develop your senses allowing an appreciation of new wines by sight, smell and taste.

Please e-mail us to find out how we can help you create a great event!
